The name Zuma Zuma is derived from the Sotho expression used to describe the stealthy walk needed in the quest for game in the underbrush. With this in mind, the lodge buildings are all placed to provide seclusion and intimacy without compromising the natural surroundings. The earthy tones of all the buildings blend into the bush.
The lodge is now known as Royal Legend Safari Lodge
